Dell Inspiron 8200 Laptop - Physical Memory
Dec 7, 2005
I am working on a Dell Inspiron 8200 Laptop.The first problem was a blue screen that said:Quote: STOP: c0000218 {Registry File Failure}The registry cannot load the hive (file):systemrootsystem32configsoftware or its log or alternate It is corrupt, absent, or not writable.Beginning dump of physical memory
Physical memory dump complete.Contact your system administrator or technical support group for further assistance I fixed that by going into the recovery console and replacing:C:windowssystem32configsoftware C:windowssystem32configsam.bak
C:windowssystem32configsystem.bakC:windowssystem32configdefault.bakC:windowssystem32configsecurity.bakwith the one in the C:windows epair directory

I was surfing around and then all of a sudden my wallpaper is a warning box saying that there is spyware detected and I need to install an antivirus or spyware remover to clean up my computer. When I right click the desktop it just has "themes, appearance, and settings" no "desktop" or "screensaver" By the way it's on a Dell Inspiron E1505 laptop.

I have a Dell, Intel 3 notebook with Windows 2000, and I keep getting frozen out with message to end program all the time. Seems it needs fixed up some way. What can I do to get the programs to open more quickly and stop freezing with End Program message?

As fate would have it, the warranty expired on the 15th of July - The computer is a Dell Inspiron laptop - running windows XP. After being left online overnight in a hotel with wireless internet it locked up. Currently we get different results (but all results end in a lock up at the windows screen) - usually it comes up with a screen saying "we apologize for the inconvenience, but windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this" (no new hardware or software was installed prior to lockup) It gives you options to try to start - (I can't remember what all it said - but safe mode was a choice and going back to a prior time was a choice) Usually it is just locked up and you can't click on anything.
Once I did get it to go to safe mode and I tried to do a system restore - It did go through all the motions of doing a system restore - but when rebooted - the same "we apologize" error was there - WHen I can click on a starting option it goes to the windows screen - the blue line runs for a few seconds - then it just locks up. Dell wants a small fortune to help me over the phone. This is my son's college computer. I was thinking he probably picked up a virus when he was online in the hotel. Is that possible? It has let me get into set up by pressing F2 during boot - but I have no idea what to do there (if anything) F12 is another option it gives - but it wont do anything when I push that.

I need to replace my internal hard drive on my Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop. I do not want to copy anything from it. I bought the new hard drive, but I am not sure how or what order to install everything. I have the 'Reinstallation CD MS Win XP Home' from Dell, SP2 & SP3, and the Drivers & Utilities cd 'for reinstalling dell inspiron system software'. Since these are all 'reinstallation' cds, can I use these? Is there a website or other link that you can point me to that may have step by step instructions/pictures of this entire process? I am not doing an actual reinstall, but that's what the cds say. I am installing a NEW hard drive. I'm pretty sure I can get the actual HD in the laptop. It's just a matter of what to do next to get Windows XP on it.

I have a Dell Dimension 8200 desktop running WinXP Home however It won't boot to the hard drive. I replaced the drive with a known working one and it still doesn't boot, says Diskette Drive 0 Not Found, however I figured that was referring to the floppy drive. Tried switching the ide cables around and that didn't work either. The power supply is working, as well as all of the fans. Its running a 1700mh processor. Cd-Rom works fine, and I can boot to a CD, I can browse the files if I boot to Knoppix, however it simply won't boot to the Hard Drive. I ran FixMbR and FixBoot in the recovery console, to no avail. Bios is configured properly, and I haven't touched the jumpers. Just to be sure I tried the hard drive in another system, and it wouldn't boot in that one either. Might be the mother board?

Dell Optiplex GX240 with Windows XP. While i was asleep my computer crashed with a blue screen. I wasn't able to copy down the error message, but on the bottom it read beginning dump of physical memory I restarted the computer and after the Dell load page it turns into a black screen reading strike F1 to retry boot, F2 for setup utility. F1 will only return to same message, and F2 leads me to setup utility. The only device that seems to be working is my A: drive. It says that my cd drive is not installed.

well, I managed to screw up my winxp reinstall in a big way. I'm very upset over it since its my sis-in-laws computer. Before, she could not access the internet, but at least she could boot up WinXP and play games, access her email and all of her programs on the desktop...now...nothing but the following popup error message:
Error: One of the files containing the system registry data had to be recovered by use of a log or alternate copy. The recovery was successful
then the popup disappears and sends me to a blue screen (long) message starting with this:
A problem has been detected and windows bios has been shut down to prevent damage

I was doing something with task manager today and I saw that it's only reading 780 some mb of physical memory when it should be reading a gig. Is there anything I can do short of taking them out individually and putting them in different slots to test them? I have a 512mb and two 256's.

Everytime I perfom a Spyware Scan on my daughters computer it reboots automaticly, with a short blue screen flashing up. And when I run a microsoft update scan the computer reboots in the same manner during that scan. Everytime the HD is getting scaned it reboots in the middle of it, with a short flash of a blue screen that talks about physical memory dump. Can somebody help me there. By the way I reformated the HD already and reloadet everything new on that HD, because it had the same problem before. Could it be the BIOS or a setting.

When I start up Windows XP I get a message from Zone Alarm which reads:Suspicious Behavior Windows Genuine Advantage is trying to read and modify physical memory ( programme WgaTray.exe)Zone Alarm gives me the option to allow or deny - thus far I have opted for deny. Please could anyone tell me what Windows Genuine Advantage is; I suspect any advantage would be to Microsoft rather than to me.

Several times a day my computer jumps to a blue screen and says it is dumping the physical memory and counts from 1 to 100 and reboots. Just aggravates me to death. I am a senior citizen and not too swift on the computer operation, but I try.

Physical memory dump on my xp sp2 system running 768 megs sd ram. Athlon xp1200 processor.This problem is happening more and more often. I have run avast, adaware, spybot, all come up clean.Sometimes pc is unable to recover and will keep coming back to screen for selecting safe mode etc.Tried to run registry cleaner I saw on your home page. But once downloaded and tried to run this, PC crashed again. Even now I am usure how long I will get on this site before something goes down.

I had to purchase a new hardrive for a Dell Inspiron 5100. I am just wondering how to go about the Windows reinstallation on a Dell. Do I just plug in the reinstall cd like usual and go from there? I know this might be a Duh question, but it's a Dell.

My kid is home from LSU with a laptop with no sound. She can't hear her music or UTube, but video works great. I know it's a crummy laptop, but we're trying to band aid it until she graduates and buys herself a better one.Dell Inspiron 700 Windows XP--there is no sound and no error messages. Of course the mute button is off. We went to the Dell website and downloaded the audio driver, but still nothing.We'll try anything short of buying a new laptop or motherboard.

I run Windows XP and keep finding that when I leave my PC unattended for more than 10 minutes I get a blue screen with a scary message regarding the dumping of physical memory. The error codes in the message are as follows:

My computer was working a minute ago. I decided to restore it. I put the disk in, except it belonged to my other Sony computer. The computer message was that it was the wrong disk. So I took it out. I rebooted the computer and got the blue screen of death it says Dumping physical memory to disk and started at 0 and got to 60. I figured it'd explode at 100 LOL so I better shut it down. I rebooted several times but that always comes up. I rebooted and hit F8 I think it is which gave me the option to reboot the hard drive, a floppy, or the DVD drive. I did one at a time, rebooting in between each choice. I still have that screen. Did I totally ruin my computer? Oh sigh.I can get to nothing but that screen. No control panel.I then figured I couldn't make it much worse, so I put in the Windows XP disk to just install Windows XP again, but the computer wouldn't even pick it up. The disk was spinning, but the screen remained the same.

Everything will freeze, completeley and then it will go to a blue screen that says something like
HARD DRIVER ERROR:BEGINNING DUMP OF PHYSICAL MEMORY
which scares the living **** out of me, so I turn off the power manually from the power strip connected to my computer and switch it on again, sometimes, It'll start up and after it shows the Hardware and Window XPs loads, It goes to another blue screen that says HARD ERROR, instead of having me log in.

I am a computer science/engineer major and I know somewhat a lot about computers, but this is my first time seeing this blue screen. My computer will start up to the compaq screen then goes to windows xp and then it flashes a blue screen for a split second. I was able to freeze it, but do not know how i did it, but it said something about a cretain system32 file is corrupt. there is a corrupt hive. complete physical memory dump complete. contact tech support or system administrator. right now, I am out of town and i have been reading about it and they say something about using a recovery console. I do not have my XP disk with me. I was wondering could I use anyone's XP disk and how do i fix this problem with no disk or using a XP disk?

I have a memory problem, I have 248 MB of physical memory and only 88MB free. That is better than it was last night -- last night I had only 33MB free. My virtual memory is 606 MB with 244MB free.I cannot access certain things all of a sudden -- for instance, when I click in the system tools to do a disk defrag it never comes up. When I click on the Set Program Access and Defaults it never comes up. In control panel when I click on any of the icons in Administrative Tools -- none of them open.when the computer boots up it has the screen where it is asking for a password
